TOURNAMENTS

GROUP GOLF EVENTS

ASU Karsten is one best places in the Phoenix metro area to host group golf events. In many ways the facility was made for it. The Pete Dye-designed golf course offers rewarding golf experience; the Trophy Room and sprawling Thunderbirds Patio are perfect for pre- and post-golf gatherings; the club is centrally located in the heart of Tempe; and the attentive tournament staff is dedicated to providing first-class service from beginning to end.

GOLF CHARITY FUNDRAISERS

Although it’s best known as the tournament venue where ASU’s golf teams compete, ASU Karsten Golf Course hosts charity events of all shapes and sizes that help raise much-needed funds for an array of worthy causes. As one might imagine, hosting a large charity event requires much more planning than booking a foursome of golf. ASU Karsten’s experienced tournament director works alongside each group coordinator to uncover the best fit for their goals.

CORPORATE EVENTS

One of the best ways to entertain clients and/or reward employees for a job well done is to treat them to a corporate golf outing that is sure to impress. Our team is adept at understanding the needs and goals of each corporate group and proposing a package to create an event to remember for years to come.

CUSTOM GIFTS

We have partnered with CMC Custom Gifts, the event gift company that supplies unique custom logo gifts for your tournament attendees.

SPONSORSHIPS

Few sponsorship opportunities can reach a higher demographic, than those of a golf tournament. The ASU Karsten Golf Course annually hosts hundreds of tournaments — from small corporate tournaments to larger charity tournaments.

SUN DEVIL'S IN THE DETAILS

Tournament scheduling factors such as the time of year and time of day can make a big impact on the bottom line. Food and beverage services offered by the club are highly customizable to fit each group. Tournament prizes and tee gifts add to the excitement of any event. And a compelling format of play and on-course game such as longest drive and closest to the pin give everybody a chance to win. These are just a few considerations that our professional staff have at their fingertips.

BUDDY TRIPS AND OTHER BOONDOGGLES

Not every group golf event features a full-blown, 144-player competition. In fact, groups as small as 12 make the cut for tournament services at ASU Karsten Golf Course. Birthday celebrations, buddy trips, bachelor parties, grudge matches or casual play among family and friends, the list of reasons to host a golf event is a long one. The team as ASU Karsten prides itself on providing excellent service no matter the size.

IN THE FOOTSTEP OF CHAMPIONS

Many courses claim to be a championship course. Karsten proves it over and over again by hosting such respected tournaments as the collegiate Men’s and Women’s Pac-10 and NCAA Championships, Phoenix Thunderbirds Collegiate Invitational, PING Invitational, the U.S. Open Qualifying and many other high-profile competitive championships.
